(PLEASE HELP) 1971 Mercury 650 65hp outboard ignition switch

[bhppy]

Hi all,

I just bought a 1971 Mercury 650 65hp 4cyl outboard and it did not have an ignition switch. The 7 wires that are comming from the outboard are Red, Yellow, Grey, Black, Salmon, White, and Brown. I bought a universal starter switch today from O'reilly's Automotive and it has 4 connections. These connections are: Starter, Ignition, Battery, and Accessory.

Can someone pleasze help me out with what colors go where?

Any help would be greatly appreciated!!
